Re: Commanders vs Lions pre-game
 

If we win this game I don't know what I'll do with myself. I'll probably ram a hole through my wall out of excitement like a cartoon character.

Re: Commanders vs Lions pre-game
 

Not crazy to think we can win this game. If we play a clean game and get a turnover or two or some key stops, it could happen.

Either way anything that happens from here is just gravy to me.

Re: Commanders vs Lions pre-game
 

Lions 45
Commanders 38

It will be a shootout but Lions will be one step ahead of us.

If we pull off an upset; it will be a last minute heroics from Jayden.

I just don’t trust our defense.

every week we play a team that has the strongest this or ranks best at that, and in general we find ways to neutralize those strengths. I think we do the same thing here:

Washington 31
Detroit 27

Montgomery is expected to play. Lions' offense is legit, and they have had a lot of injuries on the defense side. I agree with 88commanders, it's going to be a shoot out game. Whoever has the ball on last drive of the game will win.

I feel the same way.

I am actually happy Montgomery is back. Not that he it not good, but that is means less of Gibbs and Gibbs is amazing!!

Good point

Re: Commanders vs Lions pre-game
 

Very hard to see us winning this...

Washington 24
Detroit 34

Re: Commanders vs Lions pre-game
 

I have for much of this season engaged in bit of superstition, which is to say I have predicted that we will not win most of our games so as not to jinx us (and the ones I did predict we'd win -- e.g., Dallas game 1 -- has only reinforced this superstition). Of course, in years past, it wasn't superstition as much as cold hard reality, but I digress.

So keeping with my recent tradition, I predict DET 36, WAS 28.

Any given week. I think we will need to win the TO battle by more than 1 (maybe Goff will throw 5 picks like he did against the Texans) to scrape out of DET with a win. Whatever the outcome, this was such a fun season, and I can say for the first time in decades that I am a proud fan of this team.

Move Goff off his spot

Damn it feels fucking great to be Redskins/WFT/Commanders fan. Been watching pro-our team clips all night on national show replays. We're fucking back baby, only took about 30 years.

Beating the #1 NFC seed in a divisional playoff game in the season after you went 4-13 is highly unlikely— just as unlikely as going 13-5[emoji12]
